Kobach refiles lawsuit over 21 winter storm gas prices
Garnett has $2.9 million of
skin in the game, plus hikes
in interest rates for loan
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Kansas Attorney General
Kris Kobach has re-filed a civil lawsuit previously tossed out of federal
court that seeks to recover tens of
millions of dollars the AG alleges was
bilked out of Kansas utility customers during the February 2021 Winter
Storm Uri that wrecked municipal
utility budgets statewide.
The City of Garnett was hit with
$2.9 million in additional charges for
spot market-purchased gas and
electricity during
the week of the
cold snap. Costs of
that loan were compounded last summer when spiking
interest rates added
Kobach
$55,000 to the variable rate loan and
forced a discussion
among city commissioners about tapping city cash reserves to pay the
added costs. Interest rate hikes by the
Federal Reserve aimed to slow down
inflation in the U.S. economy drove
Garnetts estimated interest payments
from $6,000 this year to some $61,000.
Kobach re-filed the lawsuit against
Texas-based Macquarie Energy in
Topekas U.S. District Court after a
federal judge threw it out in October
on a technicality. The attorney general fired the outside counsel hired
to assist on the case, saying an error
in the filing was due to a mistake by
those attorneys.
The suit alleges Macquarie, as the
countrys second-largest natural gas
supplier, manipulated prices on the
Southern Star trading hub and bid up
the price of natural gas so that by the
time its own fees were added, cities
like Garnett were paying spot prices 900 percent higher than existing
benchmark prices. The suit claims
the move allowed Macquarie to earn
record profits during that limited
storm, and asks for $50 million the
state says customers in Kansas were
overcharged.
Its disgraceful that Macquarie
would manipulate prices at a time
when Kansans were already hurting
from the storm, Kobach said. We
will do everything we can to recover what has been taken from those
Kansans.
The state however was a big winner
when it loaned cities low-interest cash
to pay those inflated bills. The loans
were set at .25 percent interest as long
as market rates remained under 2.25.
Those rates would adjust each Jan. 1,
and would remain 2 points under the
market rate if it exceeded 2.25. But
moves by the Fed to slow price-hiking
inflation nationwide since floods of
money were injected into the econoSEE LAWSUIT ON PAGE 5
Study: Anderson County 9th in
Kansas in decade wealth growth
Figures show impact of
past years economics as
well as recent inflation
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
NEW YORK, N.Y. Financial advisor referral company SmartAsset
has ranked Anderson County 9th out
of all counties in Kansas in overall
wealth growth over the past 10 years,
in a study that compared increases in
property values, median income and
investment growth in all 50 states over
that period.
Smart Asset is an online service
firm that matches investors with
financial advisors based on the investment needs and profile strengths of
both, and based the study on data
from statistics on income from the
U.S. Internal Revenue Service, Zillow
property value comparisons and the
U.S. Census American Community
Survey.
Those sources provided information on investment income for each
county in the nation as part of the
study, which SmartAsset calculated
by weighing ordinary dividends, qualified dividends and net capital gains
reported on tax returns and calculated
median home values in counties, then
added in county median income before
ranking each county and state on the
combination of data. Those rankings
were then compared to the same data
10 years prior for each county to determine rates of growth.
The full study can be seen at www.

Most of Anderson Countys overall
wealth increase came in the form of
increasing property value according
to the study, both in higher values for
existing properties and increases from

Davids, Democrats fail to stop
Biden impeachment inquiry
Party line vote sets in
motion official probe of
President, sons dealings
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WASHINGTON, D.C. Kansas
3rd District Congresswoman
Sharice Davids towed the line
with Democrats in the House
Wednesday, voting against an
inquiry into the impeachment of
President Joe Biden on suspicions
he and members of his family colluded to sell high-level influence
both nationally and internationally
when he was vice-president under
Barack Obama.
H.R. 918 passed on a straight party-line vote, with 221 Republicans
in favor and 212 Democrats against.
The measure defines the scope of an
investigation into Bidens alleged
influence peddling scheme within
the purview of the House Ways and
Means, Judiciary and Oversight
and Accountability committees,
including means to subpoena and
compel testimony from witnesses
and documentation from both public and private sources.
Members of the Oversight committee have alleged a range of
instances dating back to 2014 in
which the Biden family profited
from influence deals with China,
Romania, Kazakhstan and Ukraine,
saying records obtained through
the committees subpoenas todate
show the Bidens and their associates have received over $20 million
in payments from foreign entities.
Pivotal to the investigation to date
has been the role played by Bidens
son Hunter Biden as an alleged
bagman who arranged meetings,
pledged services to clients and collected large sums of money which
committee members say was filtered through a host of shell companies owned by the Bidens, and from
which numerous of Joe Bidens personal expenses were paid.
The inquiry, which is expected
to begin in January after congress
returns from holiday break, was

The story of the birth of Christ:
Angels brought message of mans hope
Translation courtesy of the
Christian Broadcasting Network.
In the sixth month of
Elizabeth's pregnancy, God sent
the angel Gabriel to Nazareth,
a village in Galilee, to a virgin
named Mary. She was engaged
to be married to a man named
Joseph, a descendant of King
David. Gabriel appeared to her
and said, "Greetings, favored
woman! The Lord is with you!"
Confused and disturbed, Mary
tried to think what the angel
could mean. Don't be frightened,
Mary," the angel told her, "for
God has decided to bless you! You
will become pregnant and have
a son, and you are to name him
Jesus. He will be very great and
will be called the Son of the Most
High. And the Lord God will give
him the throne of his ancestor
David. And he will reign over
Israel forever; his Kingdom will
never end!"
Mary asked the angel, "But
how can I have a baby? I am a
virgin."
The angel replied, "The Holy
Spirit will come upon you, and
the power of the Most High will
overshadow you. So the baby born
to you will be holy, and he will
be called the Son of God. What's
more, your relative Elizabeth has
become pregnant in her old age!
People used to say she was barren, but she's already in her sixth
month. For nothing is impossible
with God."
Mary responded, "I am the
Lord's servant, and I am willing
to accept whatever he wants. May
everything you have said come
true." And then the angel left.
Mary Visits Elizabeth
A few days later Mary hurried
to the hill country of Judea, to the
town where Zechariah lived. She
entered the house and greeted
Elizabeth. At the sound of Mary's
greeting, Elizabeth's child leaped
within her, and Elizabeth was
filled with the Holy Spirit.
Elizabeth gave a glad cry and
exclaimed to Mary, "You are
blessed by God above all other
women, and your child is blessed. What an honor this is, that
the mother of my Lord should
visit me! When you came in and
greeted me, my baby jumped for
joy the instant I heard your voice!
You are blessed, because you
believed that the Lord would do
what he said."

OBITUARIES
ROCKERS
WOLKEN
AUGUST 10, 1984 – DECEMBER 8, 2023
Kelly Rockers, 39, of Scipio,
Kansas, passed away unexpectedly from natural causes
on Friday,
December 8,
2023. He was
born in Paola,
Kansas on
August 10,
1984 to Ben
and
Katie
(Wiederholt)
Rockers
Rockers.
As his parents drove to
the hospital on the day Kelly
was born, they noticed the
road was lined with little blue
Kansas wildflowers. His dad
knew then they were going to
have a baby boy. They named
him Kelly Reynold Rockers
after his Grandpa Kenneth
Kelly Rockers and Great
Grandfather Reynold Rennie
Huettenmueller. Kelly was the
second of four children and he
and his siblings were the best
of friends who had so much
fun together. For them, life on
the Rockers family farm was
always an adventure. In his
youth, Kelly enjoyed camping,
hunting, fishing, shooting,
and breaking horses from the
Adopt A Mustang Program and
had the scars and broken bones
to prove it!
Kelly attended Saint Johns
and Greeley Elementary
School. He graduated from
Anderson County High School
in 2002, and Ottawa University
in 2006 with a Bachelor of Arts
in Biology. He then attended
Southern Missouri State and
studied Chordate Zoology.
Early in his education, one of
his elementary school teachers, Mrs. Massey taught him
to channel his abundant energy into curiosity. Ultimately,
Kelly tied together his love
of animals and nature and
built an outdoor classroom at
Ottawa University to inspire
students to get out of the
classroom and into the field.
Kelly found a way to spend
more time in nature by running, which earned him college
scholarships in cross country
and track. He started to fulfill
his dream of spending a life
outdoors by working collegiate
summers with the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers, which
led to a job as a park ranger
with the Kansas Department
of Wildlife and Parks. Like his
parents and siblings, Kelly was
a Hunter Education instructor
and mentored countless students. What he learned helping build his familys log home
as a kid developed his love of
carpentry and his final career
choice – a skilled foreman on
several construction crews. He
achieved his dream: no matter
what he did, Kelly found a way
to be in nature every day of his
life.
In 2012, Kelly began a
long-term relationship with
Stella Provias and her daughter Sienna and together they
formed a family in Lawrence.
They welcomed their son Bodhi
Lee in 2014. Although life took
them in separate directions,
they continued to focus on raising Bodhi together.
Kelly loved his son more
than anything on earth. Kelly
passed on his love of nature
to Bodhi through their many
walkabouts on the farm and
everywhere imaginable. Their
honest conversations led to
finding the truths of the universe. He taught Bodhi about
the magic power of love. Kelly
had an infectious smile, genuine hug and a twinkle in his eye
that he passed on to Bodhi.
As friends and family know,
Kelly was a simple kind of man
– humble, genuine, compassionate, very ornery, a giver
of unconditional love and hugs
and owner of a joyful soul. He
said he loved people more than
things. Recently, Kelly shared
a favorite quote he had found:
When you miss me just look
up at the night sky and remember I am like a star; sometimes
you cant see me but I am
always there.
He was preceded in death
by much loved grandparents,
aunts, uncles and dear friends.
Kelly is survived by his son,
Bodhi Lee Rockers; his parents, Ben and Katie Rockers of
Scipio, Kansas; his older sister
Kathleen Pearce and her husband, Andrew, and daughters,
Kate and Aly of Spring Hill,
Kansas; his younger brother
Patrick Rockers and wife, Ryan
Maye Handy, of Grand Teton
National Park, Wyoming;
and younger sister Bobbi Jo
Wenciker and her husband,
Drake, of Spring Hill, Kansas;
and many aunts, uncles, cousins and countless close friends.
Mass of Christian Burial
was held December 14, 2023, at
St. Boniface Catholic Church
in Scipio, Kansas.
Memorial contributions
may be made to the Kelly
Rockers Memorial Fund (for
the establishment of an educational fund for his son, Bodhi)

Lets go see!
The birth of Jesus is
remarkable in many ways.
He was born in Bethlehem to
fulfill the prophecy of Micah
made 700 years earlier. His
birth occurred in Bethlehem
because his parents traveled to
Bethlehem to register as part
of a census decreed by Caesar
Augustus, who was governor
to be taxed. What happened
after his birth is also quite
amazing. We are told an angel
appeared to some shepherds
who were living in the fields
tending their flocks. It was
night and we are told the glory
of the Lord shone around the
shepherds and they were terrified. The glory of the Lord
being a bright light. The angel
announced the birth of Jesus
and suddenly there was a great
company of angels present
among them praising God.
Luke does not even mention anyone else noticed what
was happening. I believe there
is good reason God chose to
reveal the birth of Jesus only
to the shepherds. In his ministry Jesus linked his own
divine nature with one of the
most ordinary occupations in
Israel. The Old-Testament pictures God as Israels ShepherdLeader. In Psalm 80:1 we read,
Hear us, O Shepherd of Israel,
you who led Joseph like a flock;
you who sit enthroned between
the cherubim, shine forth
before Ephraim, Benjamin
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
and Manasseh. Awaken your
might, come and save us.
The New-Testament reveals
Jesus as the Good Shepherd
who gave his life for the sheep.
In John 10:11 Jesus says, I
am the Good Shepherd. God
knew that the birth of Jesus
would only affect a small portion of the populous, much like
his life, death burial and resurrection only affects a small
portion of the people today.
Christmas is a good time for
us to reflect on our own life.
Which group would we fit into,
the shepherds or the people
who were so busy they didnt
even see the birth of the Savior
nearby. Maybe we need to do
like the shepherds who said
to one another, Lets go to
Bethlehem and see this thing
that has happened which the
Lord has told us about. (Luke
2:15) Maybe its time we made
the Lets go see decision this
year. All of us who have made
that decision are waiting for
you.

OPINION
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, December 19, 2023
Sharice Davids dog ate your homework
The sexual oddity lobby, pro-abortion community, teachers unions, green energy industry and racist anti-Semites puppet-mastering
Sharice Davids in the U.S. Congress are going to
have to feed her staff some new excuses as she
continues to oppose the values and principles of
Kansas 3rd Congressional District in the coming
year the old ones are getting pretty threadbare.
Because over and over again through the
course of 2023, Davids has voted unabashedly
in contrast to the traditional Midwest values of
her district, repeatedly sacrificing veterans, law
enforcement, family budgets, parents rights,
control of private property even infrastructure
projects for towns in her own district on the
altar of abortion, green energy, abnormal sexuality and protecting failed President Joe Bidens
backside.
With Davids the song is always the same.
During her 2024 re-election bid, we have to wonder how long 3rd District voters will buy her
lame the dog ate my homework excuses.
Dont think she doesnt know the score. The
further she gets from I-435 and the protection
of the JOCO/WYCO liberal bushes, the more
clandestine she becomes. You dont see Davids
riding a float in the county fair or Christmas
parades in Anderson, Franklin or Miami counties, or meeting the public in any other kind
of unscripted event no one gets access to the
congresswoman to confront her over her politics. All we see is the after-the-fact product of
her private photo-ops with city officials, airport
directors or friendly industry chiefs after she
parachutes in unannounced to show how much
she cares for the us rubes in the hinterlands of
her district. Here and gone in a flash she is the
quintessential Zoro of legislators.
A review of her voting record shows why she
operates only under camouflage:
-shes been unable to condemn violence against
churches and pregnancy centers from Leftist
domestic terrorists who share her obssessive
support for the murder of the unborn;
-she couldnt bring herself to vote for a bill establishing fines and penalties for federal employees
working with Big Tech to censor Americans
(youll be hearing more about this in the coming
year);
– she voted against a national Parents Bill of
Rights, establishing that parents of school kids
have a right to information and access to primary and secondary schools their children
attend, after school boards across the country
banned and even arrested parents from public

meetings where they spoke against Diversity,
Equity & Inclusion and Environmental/Social
Governance indoctrination of their kids in those
schools;
– shes supported Joe Biden and the federal government dictating how you manage the pond on
your own farm property;
– she wouldnt vote to ban men from womens
sports, throwing decades of hard-fought accomplishments of women athletes under the bus in
support of men who say theyre women;
– she couldnt support a bill that would automatically deport any illegal alien who assaulted a
police officer or emergency responder;
– she voted against a national prohibition that
would stop states from banning gasoline-powered vehicles;
she voted to support Israel-hating congresswomen Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib when
Republicans called them to account for their
past public rhetoric attacking Jews;
she determined your tax dollars had to pay for
sex changes and abortions for military personnel, or else she couldnt support a giant defense
funding bill to keep our military strong and our
nation safe;
while Joe Biden groveled before the Saudis
for more oil production after he gelded the once
self-sufficient U.S. oil industry and while U.S.
families forked over double the cost of gasoline
from a few years ago, Davids just couldnt bring
herself to support the Lower Energy Costs Act
to incentivize expanding U.S. energy production;
And who can forget recently, when Davids

Theres no reason for Kansas to pile up our money
Its said the governor and the Republicans
in the Kansas Legislature are deeply divided
over the idea of a flat tax, a single incometax rate that applies to everyone, and likely to
come up loggerheads again next spring rather
than agreeing on a tax package.
Thats too bad, because the actual differences dividing the two are mostly ideological.
Theres nothing wrong in principle with the
idea of a properly calculated flat tax. The key
is in how the tax law is written and where the
cutoffs are set.
The state has plenty of information to figure this out.
Anyway, this dispute should not be allowed
to get in the way of tax cuts, which Kansans
both need and deserve. To let that happen
while playing politics, that would be a disservice to all.
Despite the need for compromise and agreement, the governor sounds intransigent:
You know, she told Statehouse reporters,
I think Ive been pretty clear over time that I
think the flat tax is very irresponsible, and it
will take us down a path we dont want to go,
sort of back to the days when we werent able
to fund our schools and our roads and everything else.
I think there are ways to do responsible
tax cuts. I offered several options last year
to the Legislature. Theyre dead set, at least
some of them are dead set, on this flat tax,
which wont work. So we will have to negotiate it as we go through the session.
But I dont plan to react any differ-

ently to a flat-tax proposal this year than I did
last year (when she vetoed it).
Theres an open-minded attitude.
If the governor once again vetoes their tax
package, however, the leadership will need
the vote of each and every Republican member of the House and Senate to override her.
Last year, that didnt happen. This year, it
might.
This year, the leadership says, their plan
will include a single tax rate for everyone
and an increased income floor below which
wage earners wont pay any income tax at
all. It also includes elimination of the state
income tax on Social Security payments, but
no acceleration in the phase-out of the sales
tax on food.
The food tax started at 6.5 percent and
dropped to 4 percent this year. Jan. 1, it will
go to 2 percent and a year later, Jan. 1, 2025, it
will disappear.
Tradition plays a key role in this fight.
Democrats usually advocate for a progressive income tax, like the federal system,
where rates increase along with income. That
way, they say, those who can afford to will pay
more of their income, and those who cant pay
less.
Republicans often argue for a flat tax, saying its unfair to tax one person a higher rate
than another. With a flat tax, the working
poor are protected by not taxing them at all,
and the floor should be indexed to inflation
so it remains a real break. Producing enough
income is a matter of setting the rate right.
There is no reason a flat tax cant be written
to protect the states revenue; usually thats
done by eliminating some or all tax deductions that apply mostly to the rich.
Without indexing, the soak the rich attitude worn by fans of the progressive tax winds
up meaning soak the middle class, something Democrats dont like to talk about when
they talk up a progressive tax.
No matter what happens, though, its imperative this year, with the state surplus headed
for more than $5 billion, plus $1.7 billion in a
rainy day fund, that the two sides get together on meaningful tax cuts. There is just no
reason for the state to take money from people
who need it and just pile it up in Topeka, or
worse yet, spend it frivolously.

Cutting off Ukraine now would be self-defeating for U.S.
Its possible that Congress cant find a
way, despite the support of bipartisan majorities, to continue funding Ukraine in its fight
against Vladimir Putins Russia.
This would have to rank, not necessarily
as the worst, but perhaps the stupidest, most
senseless abandonment of a U.S. ally ever.
Weve pulled the rug out from under allied
countries desperately fighting to save themselves from communist gulags and killing
fields (Indochina), thrown away hard-won
military gains (Iraq), deserted vulnerable
translators and other allies on the ground
(Afghanistan), but these betrayals came after
long, costly conflicts.
Ukraine hasnt been long or, by any reasonable standard, particularly costly. The roughly $100 billion weve spent so far is a fraction
of the defense budget and, one would think,
the kind of money were willing to spend to
check a hostile powers revanchist designs in
Europe.
To dump Ukraine now would be completely
gratuitous.
Congress kneecapped our allies in
Indochina — and our air campaign to prevent
complete Communist victory — by cutting off
all military operations in 1973. This made for
a dishonorable and disastrous end to the war,
but it had been a long time coming.
We were in Vietnam for roughly a dozen
years. We suffered more than 58,000 fatalities, and the war cost about $170 billion, or
something like $1 trillion in todays terms. It
deranged our politics and led to protests in the
streets, creating a constant sense of crisis.
There is no crisis over Ukraine funding,
besides support for it sagging somewhat. (A
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
Reuters poll found that 46% of people supported sending arms to Ukraine in May, whereas
only 41% supported it in October.)
President Barack Obama paved the way for
the rise of ISIS when he pulled forces out of
Iraq in 2011 after we had imposed a semblance
of order at great cost in blood and treasure.
But wed been in Iraq since 2003, in a war
premised on WMDs that didnt exist. A lightning-fast victory transformed into a grinding
war of counterinsurgency. We lost 4,400 men
and women.
Not one U.S. service-member has died in
Ukraine.
President Joe Biden pulled out of
Afghanistan in 2021, a decision that nearly
instantly handed the country over to the
Taliban. Wed been in the country for 20 years,
though, without an end in sight and without
being able to set up a self-sustaining Afghan
government or military.
The current iteration of the Ukraine conflict has been going on since February 2022.
In Ukraine, we have a committed and capable ally that is fighting hard without the direct
assistance of U.S. troops. It is battling an
unambiguous enemy of the West whose leader
is open about his anti-Americanism. Russias
military has been significantly degraded by
Ukraines resistance. The support we are giving Kyiv is taxing our supplies of weapons,
yes, but it is also being used to catalyze a
long overdue revitalization of the U.S. defense
industrial base.
This doesnt add up to a picture that
demands the immediate cessation of U.S. aid.
Americans are infamously impatient; still, we
have to have more staying power than a little
less than two years. Its true that the Ukraine
counteroffensive has been a disappointment,
yet the Russians remain bottled up in the
Eastern part of the country, again without
direct Western involvement in combat.
The critics say theres no plan for victory. Its true that Ukraine is unlikely ever to
vanquish the Russian threat once and for all,
and the best that can probably be hoped for is
an eventual armistice. Sometimes geopolitics
doesnt offer neat, easy solutions. Does Israel
have a plan for total victory against Islamic
extremism — not just Hamas, but Hezbollah,
Iran and other enemies? Does South Korea
have a plan to finally defeat North Korea?
That the answer is no doesnt make these
allies less worthy of support. The same is true
of Ukraine. To cut it off now wouldnt be a
crime, but an incredibly self-defeating blunder.
Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.
I find it hard to believe that fewer voters
cared enough to vote in this past Crest school
bond election that voted in the one 20 years
ago. Did people really just not care as much,
or are they just too much more noses stuck in
their phones and not paying attention? Dont
blame the rest of us when you finally wake up
to what your taxes are gong to be. Thank you.
I think its time these protestors who keep
blocking highways step up their game and
start blocking railroad crossings.
Kermit doesnt sing about rainbows anymore.
He just stockpiles ammo and talks about curing pedophilia and tossing commies out of

the latest in a tough series of
political knocks for Sharice
Davids and other members of
the Democrat progressive establishment in congress.
The impeachment inquiry
vote followed Davids non-committal vote of present on a
resolution condemning the rise
of anti-Semitism in the country which was passed with
both Republican and limited
Democrat support. But Davids
attempted to pivot away from
controversies involving her
past support of anti-Israel
congresswomen Ihlan Omar,
Rashida Tlaib and the condemnation vote when she joined
Republicans and some other
Democrats in a resolution condemning the testimony of three
university presidents last week
who refused to penalize anti-Semitic protests student protesters at their universities. Davids
voted yea with the 303-126
majority, though she has strong
ties and has accepted financial
contributions from those who
voted against the measure.
The resolution signifies an
official inquiry that has been
underway in various quarters
of the Republican-controlled
congress for months. GOP members said they formalized the
inquiry and called a floor vote
for authorization after the White
House denied several document
requests last month, saying the
request was unconstitutional
due to the lack of a congressional vote.
President Biden has vehemently denied the allegations.
Hunter Biden mocked a congressional subpoena Thursday
for a closed-door deposition
before the Oversight Committee,
instead holding a Capitol Hill
press conference, claiming his
father was never financially
involved in his business dealings.
Republicans have noted
the Biden family denials have
changed over time.
First, Joe Biden had no
knowledge, then he had no
involvement, and now he has no
financial involvement, noted

strategic communications director Tommy Pigott.

Young Bulldogs expect to
experience growing pains
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Fifth year
head coach Dan Ray of
the Anderson County
Bulldogs will be replacing
4 of 5 starters from last
years 13-10 squad that fell
in the substate championship game to Wellsville
40-25.
Coach Ray knows he
has a young team but
also a talented team that
should improve by leaps
and bounds as the season
progresses.
Gone from last years
team are all-league players Garrison Martin and
Caden Register.
The only returning
starter is senior Preston
Kueser, so he will be relied
on heavily to help lead.
We are young and
experienced. As the team
begins to know each oth-
ers tendancies and understand spacing on offense, I
expect this team to make
great strides, Ray added.
Early in the season
Coach Ray says when
things are going well, his
team can look really good.
Conversely, he also knows
that when shots arent falling that they will need to
slow down and be patient
with the offense.
At times we just need
to go deeper into possessions, Ray stated as sometimes his young squad will
force shots.
Coach Ray believes that
the game will slow down
for his squad as the season
progresses.
The Bulldogs will look
to run more this season as
they arent returning any
post players with major
varsity experience.

Lady Bulldogs look to get
over that proverbial hump
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The Anderson
County Lady Bulldogs came
up just one game shy of their
goal from a season ago, a state
berth.
This year the goal hasnt
changed and the experienced
Bulldogs are hoping this is the
year they get back to the state
tournament.
Despite the expectations,
they know each game is important and they must build game
by game and be in position to
play their best basketball at the
end of the season.
Four of five starters
return from last year, Kalina
Edgecomb is the only outgoing
senior from last year.
Sixth year head coach, Amy
Disbrow, will heavily rely on
the duo of Caitlyn Foltz and
Kylie Disbrow.
Last season didnt end how
we wanted to, Coach Disbrow
said. I think we are really
eager for revenge this season.
Disbrow is a back-to-back
all-state selection after earning
honorable mention her freshman season.
Disbrow tallied 17 points,
12.5 rebounds and an impressive 8.5 blocks per game. She
accounted for 22 double-doubles last year and 8 triple-doubles. The high block mark on
the season was a Kansas record
20 blocks in a game. Her 8.5
blocks per game was also good
for second nationally.
Foltz, who earned honorable
mention all-state last year, will
look to add to her 13.5 points
and 11 rebounds from last season.
They (Caitlyn and Kylie)
are a dynamic duo. They are
leaders on both ends of the
court and have incredible work
ethics, Coach Disbrow said.
Filling in the roster will be
fellow seniors Rilyn Sommer,
Addie Fudge, Lexi Overstreet
and Kailyn Honn. Other contributions are expected to come
from junior Taylor Clark and
sophomore Brylie Kohlmeier.
Among the starting 5 this
year, 2 of them (Disbrow and
Foltz) have been starters since
their freshmen season and
Fudge will be a 3 year starter.
Sommer averaged nearly 3 points and pulled down
6 rebounds last year. Those
numbers came in her first year
playing high school basketball.
Rilyn is a phenomenal athlete and has picked up on the
game and came right into a
starting spot for this first game
and hasnt looked back, Coach
Disbrow said.
Fudge will look to be the
facilitator as she averaged 4
points, 3 steals and nearly 5
assists per game last year. She
is a key contributor and vital
for the Lady Bulldogs.
According to her coach,
Overstreet came up clutch in
several key games last year
and is a spark defensively.
Coach Disbrow said Honn

pushed her team every day last
year and made the team better.
Clark has heart and enthusiasm like no other, brings energy and could elevate this team
to the next level.
Brylie Kohlmeier is the
youngest contributor on the
team earning valuable minutes
as a freshman last year and her
coach expects her to be critical
in the teams success this year.

Strong trio of seniors lead an otherwise young Bulldog squad
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Seventh year
head coach Jeremy McAdam
will have a solid group of
seniors to lean on as overall
the Anderson County Bulldogs
wrestling team is still relatively young and are lacking the
numbers to compete as a team
at dual competitions like he
would want.
This doesnt diminish what
Coach McAdam believes his
squad can accomplish indivudally as he expects some great
results from his main core
group of wrestlers.
We are down in numbers,
but what we do have is tough
though, Coach McAdam
stated. In individual tournaments, these boys will do very
well.
Gone from last year is John
Wright and Parker McCarty,
who were both letterwinners.
Wright qualified for the
state tournament last year so
is obviously a key loss to the
team.
A handful of returning letterman do return this year.
They are seniors AJ Schaffer,
Masten Wright Jr., Colten
Wittman and Porter Foltz,
junior Eli Connor and sophomores Zach Schaffer, Eli Herr
and Owen Thompson.
Along with Wright, AJ
Schaffer and Zach Schaffer
qualified for State, with AJ
Schaffer placing 6th.
Coach McAdam believes
that Santa Fe Trail will be one
of the toughest teams they will
face all season, but that Class
4A is always tough regardless.
In addition to the returning
letterwinners, Coach McAdam
expects Dexter Lytle to step in
as a sophomore and compete.

any different. There is always a
competitive atmosphere in the
room. Coach McAdam believes
those qualities often play out
for a successful season.
Coach McAdam was excited
last year for his group of freshman and no doubt looks forward to what they can do with
a year of experience under
their belts.
These boys will come after
you. I cant wait to see what
they do in the postseason,
McAdam said last year about
the group.
Lady Bulldog wrestling full
of youth and inexperience
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Third year Anderson
County head coach Maggie Price is
hoping this is the year one of her
girls can break through and earn that
elusive first medal at the state tournament.
Last year the Lady Bulldogs were
shut out of the state tournament as
they didnt have anyone qualify.
This year could be a daunting task
as the squad has just two returners from last year in junior Danika
Metcalfe and sophomore Avery Coyer.
They will be joined by a trio of
freshmen in Serenity Booth, Anna
Danner and Marlee Hollon.
Graduating from last years squad
is Bailey Clawson. Clawson won
league as a junior before finishing 4th
place last year.
The ultimate goal for the AC grapplers is to get someone back on the
state tournament mats and take home
some hardware according to Coach
Price.
It would mean so much to the
girls program to have a girls name on
our wall of state placers, Price stated
heading into last season.
The lone qualifer for state in the
history of girls wrestling was in 2021
when Clarissa Sheahan made it, coming up just short of a medal.
Girls wrestling wasnt recognized
as an official sport by the KSHSAA
until the 2020 season and they allowed
a two year transition allowing girls
to still wrestling boys, which expired
this year.

Central Heights Vikings lose 4 starters
to graduation, growing pains expected
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND Last season
with 4 seniors starting, the
Central Heights Vikings
doubled their win total
from the previous season
to go 14-8, falling in the substate championship game.
This will be Tyler
Oestreichers 9th year leading the Vikings and 12th
year overall in coaching, so
he is no stranger to having
to retool his lineup.
The four starters lost to
graduation are Cameron
Peel, Luke Burkdoll, Max
Cannady and Luke Brown.
The only returning starter is Ethan Rowan, who
was also their leading scorer averageing 13 points per
game.
Rowan has good size and
a high IQ for the game his
coach says.
He will have a great season this year and I hope to
see another level of play
that we all have not seen
yet.
Joining Rowan in the
lineup will be Laiken
Brockus, Kyler Bellinger,
Carter Kimball, Alex
Skeet, Jose Velez, Connor
Burkdoll, Brylon Sommer,
and Max Chrisjohn.
Coach
Oestreicher
knows his team has their
work cut out for them in
the Flint Hills League.
Our Flint Hills League
is always tough, great competition in that league. I
feel the toughest competitior this year in our schedule will be Lyndon, Coach
said. They have the total
package with size, speed,
and strength. Plus their IQ
of the game is extremely
high as well. Would not surprise if there is a contender
for state basketball champions.
The Vikings just look
to get better each game
and get familiar with each
other. They just dont have
much experience.
Coach added, I think
as the season progresses
we will also see big strides
when it comes time for substate.

Lady Vikings are young but gaining experience
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND – Year one for
Coach Lori Oestreicher was
every bit the challenge she
expected as the team was just
4-17 and after losing their
top 3 scorers, this year will
be a struggle for the Central
Heights Vikings to come up
with enough offense to win
games.
It wasnt the follow up season the Vikings were hoping
for as the team dropped from
12-9 to just the 4 wins, but
with the youth movement
within the program it was
expected.
The three players lost
to graduation were Bailey
Brockus, Jayden Criqui and
Erykah Haynes. They combined for nearly 20 points
per game. They accounted
for 70% of the scoring as the
Vikings averaged just 28
points per contest.
The Vikings have just 8
girls on their roster. They
are led by juniors Sydney
Evans, Addison Ouellette and
Melaney Chrisjohn and sophomores Alaina Wade, Ashley
Harkins and Macy Cubit.
They will have every
opportunity to continue to
gain valuable experience.
Hannah Matile is the lone
freshman on the team.
The offense will be led by
Cubit and Chrisjohn.
Evans will be a solid inside
prescence that will pace the
Vikings on a regular basis on
rebounds.
As the team continues to
grow and is limited in depth,
We are proud to support
2×2.5

benjamin realty
every game on the schedule
will be a challenge.
The majority of the team
earned valuable playing experience last year so Coach
Oestreicher hopes that youth
will continue to grow and
mature each and every game.
Without a doubt the goal
will be similar to last season
as Coach Oestreicher said,
With such a tall task at hand,
the goal is just to be competitive night in and night out.
Playing tough and learning
from mistakes will go a long
way in building the girls confidence and hopefully build a
team that can be good in the
years to come.
The league is always tough,
especially for a young team.

Despite losing a key core of players,
Lancers expectations are a league title
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – The Lancers lost half of their
letterwinners from last years team that
finished 15-7, but are hoping the nucleus
of returning players can help overcome
the losses so they can acheive their goal of
a league title and advance to the substate
championship to give them an opportunity
to qualify for State.
We want to give ourselves a chance to
get out to Dodge City in March, third year
head coach Dakotah Sporing stated. We
know we have to take it one step at a time
and deal with who is on the schedule each
night.
The lone senior, returning letterwinner
is Jacob Golden followed by juniors Jacob
Zimmerman, Gentry McGhee and Denton
Ramsey.
Last years team finished second in
league play and was sub-state runner up,
dropping the championship to Olpe.
Some of the tougher teams we will see
are Humboldt and Erie early in the season, Coach Sporing said. Later in the
year we will play Burlingame who should
be tough. All three teams have good length
and athleticism and have good coaches.
The Lancers could very well go as Golden
goes.
He was first team all league last year and
all-state honorable mention as a junior.
Hes our senior leader, Coach Sporing
added.
Zimmerman will see his role increase as
he came off the bench a year ago.
He earned more time as the year went
on. He worked extremely hard this summer
and will be an enormous addition to this
years lineup, said Sporing.
McGhee, Ramsey, Brody Hobbs and
Rogan Weir will help fill the shoes of the
outgoing seniors. Coach believes they
bring effort and hustle and all have their
own skill sets which will be valuable for a
successful year.
Its a younger group that has played
together for years and have had success
together.
Coach said, I believe we will be a very
smart and fast team this year.
The concerns for the Lancers are defending a team with a lot of size as they are
limited in that area.
Lady Lancers look to build off
last years 8 win improvement
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
best all round athletes on the team.
A trio of sophomores will be vital
to the teams success.
Aylee Beckmon is the teams
point guard and was thrown into
the fire as a freshman and handled it very well according to Coach
Zimmerman.
Kinley Edgerton will play in the
post opposite of Kayla Hermreck
and is a well balanced player led the
team in blocks last year.
Kaelin Nilges is described by her
coach as the player that can hold
the team together.
She can play 4 positions and is a
very talented athlete.
Coach Zimmerman concluded, I
feel we have a team that can compete with anyone this year. Last
year it was my first year coaching
them and they were coming off a
season where they only won two
games.
Their hard working work ethic
led them to a 10 win season. This
years goal is to end the season with
a winning record. Hopefully, we can
get into the postseason and do some
damage, Zimmerman added.
COLONY The inagural year for 2nd
year head coach Steve Zimmerman
would have to go down as a success
as the Crest Lady Lancers improved
from 2 wins the year before he took
over to 10-12 last year.
Despite losing a pair of seniors,
McKenna Hammond and Haylee
Beckmon, the Lancers goal for the
season is to finish with a winning
record and do as much damage in
the postseason as they can.
Last postseason they opened with
a 29-23 over Marmaton Valley before
dropping the second round game to
Madison.
The Lancers lost 2 starters, but
are returning 6 players that started
games at some point last season.
Kayla Hermreck will lead the
way as a 4 year starter that led
the team in scoring and rebounding
and was voted first team all-league.
Juniors Cursten Allen and Karlee
Boots will be expected to pick up
their game to help overcome their
outgoing seniors.
Cursten make a lot of clutch
shots for us and Karlee is one of the

well as the songs, Whats In
that Stocking and Dancer and
Prancer. The evening concluded with a visit from Santa and
the children were able to tell
him what they wished for on
Christmas.

LUKE: CHAPTER TWO
The Birth of Jesus
At that time the Roman
emperor, Augustus, decreed
that a census should be taken
throughout the Roman Empire.
(This was the first census taken
when Quirinius was governor
of Syria.) All returned to their
own towns to register for this
census. And because Joseph
was a descendant of King David,
he had to go to Bethlehem in
Judea, Davids ancient home.
He traveled there from the village of Nazareth in Galilee. He
took with him Mary, his fiance,
who was obviously pregnant by
this time.
And while they were there,
the time came for her baby to
be born. She gave birth to her
first child, a son. She wrapped
him snugly in strips of cloth
and laid him in a manger,
because there was no room for
them in the village inn.

The Shepherds and Angels
That night some shepherds
were in the fields outside the
village, guarding their flocks
of sheep. Suddenly, an angel
of the Lord appeared among
them, and the radiance of the
Lords glory surrounded them.
They were terribly frightened,
but the angel reassured them.
Dont be afraid! he said. I
bring you good news of great
joy for everyone! The Savior
— yes, the Messiah, the Lord
— has been born tonight in
Bethlehem, the city of David!
And this is how you will recognize him: You will find a baby
lying in a manger, wrapped
snugly in strips of cloth!
Suddenly, the angel was
joined by a vast host of others -the armies of heaven — praising
God:
Glory to God in the highest
heaven,
And peace on earth to all
whom God favors.
When the angels had
returned to heaven, the shepherds said to each other, Come
on, lets go to Bethlehem! Lets
see this wonderful thing that
has happened, which the Lord
has told us about.
They ran to the village and
found Mary and Joseph. And
there was the baby, lying in the
manger. Then the shepherds
told everyone what had happened and what the angel had
said to them about this child.
All who heard the shepherds
story were astonished, but
Mary quietly treasured these
things in her heart and thought
about them often. The shepherds went back to their fields
and flocks, glorifying and praising God for what the angels had
told them, and because they
had seen the child, just as the
angel had said.

Lady Bulldogs remain perfect, roll past Oz Bulldogs pick up first win, down Oz on the road
OSAWATOMIE On Thursday
the
Anderson
County
Lady Bulldogs traveled to
Osawatomie and walked out
with a lopsided 54-14 victory
that wasn't even as close as
the score indicates and moving
the girls to a perfect 4-0 on the
young season.
The Bulldogs jumped on top
of Oz 24-4 after the opening 8
minutes.
It would just get more out of
hand over the next 2 quarters
as the Osawatomie Trojans just
couldn't hit a bucket and was
scoreless during the 16 minute
stretch.
AC scored 14 in the second
quarter and 16 in the third
to lead 54-4 heading into the
fourth quarter.
With reserves in the game,
Osawatomie tacked on 10
points over the final quarter
and held the Bulldogs off the
board to close out the game.
Caitlyn Foltz scored a career
high 26 points, pulled down 9
rebounds and also had 4 steals.
Kylie Disbrow also filled up
the stat sheet with 10 points, 9
rebounds, 7 steals and 6 blocks
on the night.
Rilyn Sommer chipped in
with 8 points, 5 rebounds, 5
steals, 3 assists and a pair of
blocks.
Also getting into the scoring
column was Alexis Overstreet
with 6 points, Taylor Clark
with 2 and Brylie Kohlmeier
with 2.
As expected, the Bulldogs
dominated basically every statistical category.
AC outscored Oz 12-0 in transition, 28-0 in points off turnovers and had a 38-6 advantage
in the paint.
Defensively, the Bulldogs
forced 36 turnovers, had 25
steals and tallied 9 blocks on
the night.
AC moves to 3-0, downs Louisburg
LOUISBURG The Anderson
County Bulldogs improved
their record to 3-0 on the
young season with a 35-31
over Louisburg on the road
December 8.
It wasn't always pretty, but
the Lady Bulldogs found a way
to hang on. AC led 14-11 after
the first quarter and had some
offensive struggles in the second, Louisburg regained the
lead heading into intermission
leading 19-18.
The second half wasn't an
offensive clinic by any means,
but the Bulldogs defense
was stout all night, holding
Louisburg to 12 points in the
second half en route to the
comeback.
ACHS won the game at the
free throw line as both teams
struggled from the field shoot-
ing less than 30%. The Lady
Bulldogs connected on 17 of 27
(63%) of their free throws compared to Louisburg going just 4
of 11 (36%).
Kylie Disbrow led all scorers with 14 points and added 6
rebounds and 7 blocks.
Caitlyn Foltz tacked on 8
points, 10 rebounds, 3 steals
and 3 blocks and Rilyn Sommer
added 7 points and 7 rebounds.
Christmas caretakers
Greg Doering, Kansas Farm
Bureau
For most of us, Christmas
Day is a pause in our regular
routine, whether its as brief
as the day or stretched over the
course of several to travel and
visit. The incessant barrage of
emails will fall in direct proportion to the number of out of
office messages set.
Its not that we have free
time, but the nature of our
work will certainly be different. Some of us (or maybe just
me) will be hastily wrapping
last-minute gifts to slide under
the tree. Others will be worried if the turkey will be fully
thawed by the time its supposed to go in the oven. And
some of us will bite our tongue
when a distant relative brings
up politics at the dinner table
before the mashed potatoes
have even made it to the other
end.
Thankfully well face these
scenarios and countless others
without the pressure of our
day jobs, which for a short
time will loom in the distance.
Office work is on pause while
we travel or tend our duties as
hosts. Even though we may sur-
reptitiously check our email
after the stockings are opened,
everyone else is preoccupied
and there are hopefully no calls
or urgent messages demanding
a response.
Hopefully everyone will
also get to steal some quiet
moments, too. Maybe in the
early afternoon after all the
presents are opened and the
dishes from Santas snack are
cleared. Amidst the exhales
and leisurely naps, take a brief
second to reflect on those who
arent afforded the same luxury
of a pause.
Think about the police officers and fire fighters who are
away from their families to
ensure ours are safe, just like
the doctors and nurses who are
tending to the ill and anyone
who suffers an acute misfortune. As you gather with family for a feast, remember the
farmers and ranchers whose
day didnt start with stockings
swaying from the mantle, but
rising before dawn to feed livestock, check on water supplies
or perform the same tasks for a
neighbor.
It's because of the people who
perform these jobs and others
like them the rest of us are able
to enjoy the safety and security
within our homes, the comfort
of knowing if were sick well
receive care and the food on
our tables.
Customs and traditions
passed from one family generation to another depend on an
array of Christmas caretakers.
Whether its the grandmother
who knits a stocking for every
grandchild, a grandfather
who oversees the table during
dinner or the sleep-deprived
parents helping Santa deliver
his presents. Everyone has a
role to play in the creation of
Christmas.
So, as you celebrate this
year, give thanks for those caretakers who arent a part of your
family, but certainly allow you
to gather with peace of mind.
And may we all enjoy the cheer
of a very merry Christmas.

OSAWATOMIE After opening the season with 3 losses,
the Anderson County Bulldog
boys finally got the monkey
off their back with a dominant
63-37 road win last Thursday
against Osawatomie.
The host team stayed close
early on and after a back and
forth first quarter, it was the
Bulldogs clinging to a 16-15
advantage.
Anderson County took control in the second quarter with
a 21-8 advantage to open up a
37-23 lead into intermission.
The Bulldogs continued
their momentum into the third
quarter, this time outscoring
Osawatomie 19-6 for a commanding 56-29 lead.
Osawatomie would have a
slim fourth quarter advantage
as they outscored the Bulldogs
8-7 over the final 8 minutes of
the game.
Brayden Wheat led all scorers with 20 points and Noah
Porter added 18.
Other scorers were Eli
Martin with 7 and the trio of
AJ Hawkins, Preston Kueser
and Jack Dykes with 6 points
each.
Lady Vikings fall in road opener
LYNDON The Central
Heights Lady Vikings took to
the road for the first time this
season and dropped their contest last Tuesday 43-22.
It was a close game early on
with the teams tied at 6 apiece
heading into the second quarter.
Lyndon took control in the
second quarter, outscoring the
Vikings 15-5 to take a 21-11 lead
into halftime.
The Vikings would struggle
out of intermission as Lyndon
opened the 3rd quarter on a
13-2 run to go up 34-13 late in
the third quarter.
Macy Cubit led the Lady
Vikings with 10 points.
Melaney Chrisjohn added 7
points.
Sydney Evans and Addison
Ouellette each scored 2 on the
night and Arabella Dunbar
added 1.
Mission Valley would
also go on to down the Lady
Vikings on Friday night 57-31.
As of press time, no further
information was available on
the game.
Bulldogs place 3rd at dual tournament
OTTAWA The Anderson
County Bulldog grapplers finished the day on Saturday with
a 3rd place finish, just behind
Holton and Ottawa.
In Match 1 Round 1 Ottawa
downed AC 60-24. Ottawa won
10 of 14 matches to win handily.
Eli Hurr (132), Zach Schaffer
(138) and Masten Wright (157)
were the only winners in the
opening dual.
In Match 2 Round 2, AC
won 7 of 13 to defeat Prairie
View 42-36. Owen Thompson
(126), Herr (132), Zach Schaffer
(138), AJ Schaffer (150), Wright
(157), Colton Wittman (165) and
Dexter Lytle (106) helped to
edge PV.
Match 3 Round 3 saw the
Bulldogs knock off Hayden
41-30 to advance to the Match
#1 Semifinal. AC grapplers
were edged out by Holton, 42-36
and in the 3rd place match the
Bulldogs were dominant in a
win over Wellsville 54-8. The
Bulldogs won 10 of the 13 duals.
Head
Coach
Jeremy
McAdam was very pleased
with how well his boys did.
Despite a 3rd place finish,
the Bulldog grapplers dropped
only 9 matches in the 5 duals.
The open spots in the lineups
make it difficult to knock off
full squads.
It was a big improvement
from a couple weeks ago.
Things are coming together as
the hard work is paying off,
Coach McAdam stated.
